Method Descriptions

void add_input_port(id: int, type: int, name: String)

Adds an input port with the specified type (see PortType) and name.


void add_output_port(id: int, type: int, name: String)

Adds an output port with the specified type (see PortType) and name.


void clear_input_ports()

Removes all previously specified input ports.


void clear_output_ports()

Removes all previously specified output ports.


int get_free_input_port_id() const

Returns a free input port ID which can be used in add_input_port.


int get_free_output_port_id() const

Returns a free output port ID which can be used in add_output_port.


int get_input_port_count() const

Returns the number of input ports in use. Alternative for get_free_input_port_id.


String get_inputs() const

Returns a String description of the input ports as a colon-separated list using the format id,type,name; (see add_input_port).


int get_output_port_count() const

Returns the number of output ports in use. Alternative for get_free_output_port_id.


String get_outputs() const

Returns a String description of the output ports as a colon-separated list using the format id,type,name; (see add_output_port).


bool has_input_port(id: int) const

Returns true if the specified input port exists.


bool has_output_port(id: int) const

Returns true if the specified output port exists.


bool is_valid_port_name(name: String) const

Returns true if the specified port name does not override an existed port name and is valid within the shader.


void remove_input_port(id: int)

Removes the specified input port.


void remove_output_port(id: int)

Removes the specified output port.


void set_input_port_name(id: int, name: String)

Renames the specified input port.


void set_input_port_type(id: int, type: int)

Sets the specified input port's type (see PortType).


void set_inputs(inputs: String)

Defines all input ports using a String formatted as a colon-separated list: id,type,name; (see add_input_port).


void set_output_port_name(id: int, name: String)

Renames the specified output port.


void set_output_port_type(id: int, type: int)

Sets the specified output port's type (see PortType).


void set_outputs(outputs: String)

Defines all output ports using a String formatted as a colon-separated list: id,type,name; (see add_output_port).
